The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Nah, that was not really an update, it was just disguised spam.

And we're shocked. Shocked I tell you!

Seriously, do you have any posts in the last 2-3 months that weren't in the 90-somethings? ;-)

Heh, I have only gotten 16.7% (5) of the Preciouses on this thread so far.
Only 20 of my 70 total posts on this thread (counting this one) have been spam, precious grabs or taking about such things.
oh... ok that is a lot I guess. I better cut back.
But we wants it Precious. It is ours!


In other news work is boring today.

Well not enough time to get that basement project finished yet. It sorta stagnated in the last few weeks. Oh well. I do have most of the summer to finish it. Not much of her stuff needs to go down there. Now that I have made places for her furniture things look like I am half moved in, even though they looked pretty full before.

A week or so ago, bittygirl says to me "what's this, precious?"

It has taken her too.

I don't get in the ocean until ~at least~ July. If then.

I tried getting in the ocean in August, in New Jersey. It was STILL too cold for me!

I should have clarified that was in North Carolina.

~Maybe~ Virginia Beach.

I came home and spent about an hour or so trimming the verge. Up until the point that the pollen got me and I couldn't stand it no more.

But I got part of the stream bed weeded and trimmed the forsythia and azaleas. I think I'm going to have to euthanize an azalea, it's about gone. But it would make a nice place for Nana's "high geranium."

Also got the dog bombs up so I can mow. All in all, gives me a jump start on tomorrow and I can actually consider sleeping in.

Plus I needed to work off some steam from getting Jr's cell phone bill...but that's another story. Told the Mrs. I wouldn't address it before Monday 'cause I don't want to ruin prom weekend and Mother's Day.

Yeah, pretty much.

His mom uses her phone for business. His bill is twice the amount of hers. Best I can figure is that he's dating (or wants to date) someone who's not in our network. Previous girlfriend had Verizon, so it didn't add up.

~sigh~

Good evening! Just spent a lovely couple of hours in a cute little riverside town near here. We had dinner at our favorite little restaurant and then sat on a bench in the evening sun eating ice cream for a little while. They don't make evenings prettier than this one. It's been a heck of week and I needed a perfect moment like that.

Now we're catching up on the TiVo. We're liking this new show called The Unit. It takes a bit of dramatic license, of course, but it's very pro-America, pro-Army, and pro-Family.
